Becca, I hope you are feeling better by now but I wanted to say that what you
can take from OTC choices may depend on your particular dr and what they
recommend. My endo in the early 90's always told me i could take whatever i
wanted. So I still do and have never noticed any ill effects from any of it.
YMMV
